  • Molecular chaperones
  • Development of novel antimicrobials

Nearly every process in a living cell is carried out by protein complexes with highly organized structure and undergoing dynamic transformations. Our research is focused on the AAA+ superfamily of 1xbet sports betting . AAA stands for "ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities", which implies that these 1xbet sports betting use energy from ATP and perform a variety of functions. Our laboratory performs basic research oriented towards understanding molecular mechanisms underlying the biological function of AAA+ 1xbet sports betting . We use a combination of biological, biochemical and biophysical experimental approaches to study interactions between 1xbet sports betting , protein localization inside living cells, and structural changes in 1xbet sports betting and protein complexes.
